Work–family conflict, psychological availability, and child emotion regulation: Spillover and crossover in dual‐earner families (2017, background): “Good fit is defined as χ2/df less than 2 and acceptable when χ2/df is less than 3; CFI values between .90 and .95 signify acceptable fit and between .95 and 1.00 good model fit; and RMSEA values less than .08 indicate acceptable model fit and below .05 point to good model fit (Schweizer, 2010).”
Reliability and Validity of the German Version of the Young Schema Questionnaire – Short Form 3 (YSQ-S3) (2013, methodology): “According to expert recommendations (e.g., Hair et al., 2009; Kline, 2010; Schweizer, 2010), we assessed global model fit using the discrepancy χ2 statistic, the normed χ2 statistic, the Bentler comparative fit index (CFI), the root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA), and the standardized ro”
The Validation of the German Basic Psychological Need Satisfaction and Frustration Scale in the Context of Mental Health (2018, methodology): “We considered three different types of fit indices to evaluate the approximate model fit, because fit indices can be influenced by either model complexity or sample size (Kline, 2015; van de Schoot, Lugtig, & Hox, 2012; Schweizer, 2010).”
Character strengths in children and adolescents: Reliability and initial validity of the german values in action inventory of strengths for youth (German VIA-Youth) (2014, methodology): “Thereafter, the use of confirmatory factor analysis (e.g., Schweizer, 2010) can be considered.”
A Spanish Adaptation of the Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (2010, methodology): “According to Schweizer’s recommendations (Schweizer, 2010), additional measures of model fit were used: (1) root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA); (2) the Bentler comparative fit index (CFI), and (3) standardized root mean square residual (SRMR).”
Preschool Children’s Prosocial Behavior: The Role of Mother–Child, Father–Child and Teacher–Child Relationships (2016, methodology): “This model explained 58% of variance in prosocial behavior, revealing acceptable fit (Schweizer, 2010).”
Linking positive emotions and academic performance: The mediated role of academic psychological capital and academic engagement (2019, methodology): “To help evaluate the cut-off point and ascertain model fit, we followed previous recommendations from the European Journal of Psychological Assessment (Schweizer 2010).”
How Psychological Capital Mediates Between Study–Related Positive Emotions and Academic Performance (2019, methodology): “The results of Harman’s single factor test (see Table 2, M1) obtained a fit index under the recommended fit standards (Schreiber et al. 2006; Schweizer 2010), which means that this bias is not likely to affect the research data.”
Testing the Psychometric Properties of the Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI) in Chile Empathy in a Different Cultural Context (2011, unknown): “In our case, the root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA; Steiger, 1990), comparative fit index (CFI; Bentler, 1990), and standardized root mean square residual (SRMR; Kline, 2005; Marsh et al., 2005; Schweizer, 2010) were used.”
Relationships of personality, affect, emotional intelligence and coping with student stress and academic success: Different patterns of association for stress and success (2012, unknown): “1, and fit statistics are shown in Table 4; these indicate good fit (Schweizer, 2010).”
Evaluating Training Programs: Development and Correlates of the Questionnaire for Professional Training Evaluation (2013, methodology): “As model evaluation should be based on multiple criteria (Byrne, 2005), we used the ratio of c2 to degrees of freedom (d.f.), RMSEA, CFI and SRMR (Schweizer, 2010; see Schermelleh-Engel et al., 2003 for cutoff values).”
